Elecrow 1–600X Portable Microscope w/ 4.3" HD LCD

So after this debacle of a discussion with Massdrop (see below, 6 weeks earlier), they decided to edit the item description without even posting about it. They will just pretend like nobody joined this drop believing it would display a 1080p image, or that they were getting any discount from the usual price (the drop is the highest price I've seen this microscope anywere). The least they could have done is have a representative post something to clear things up. I won't be purchasing from Massdrop anymore. This is appalling ... By the way, the title is still misleading; the display is not even HD, which means 720p and up. It's 480p. The specs at the end also do not clarify that the resolution mentioned is only what the camera can save on the memory card, not what the screen can display. The way "Screen: 4.3" LCD" is just above "Resolution: 1080p, 720p, VGA" is highly misleading.

Hi Chris. Thanks for your detailed reply. However the main concern lies in the description on this drop, stating that the screen itself has a 1080p resolution, which is not the case. I also think that to claim a 150x zoom digitally increased to 600x is not the same as a 600x zoom, and that claim is pretty misleading.

Hello, its Chris from Elecrow and also my pleasure to answer your concerns. ForQ1, The actual optical magnification of the lens is about 150 times. There are buttons on the display for digital software amplification. It can be adjusted, 1x, 2x, 4x. Press the left and right arrow keys to adjust, so the combined magnification is about 600 times. .(Digital magnification) https://massdrop-s3.imgix.net/img_comment/IMPjzkLwRUe15LRnHLti_33333.png There is the video link for introduction: https://www.dropbox.com/s/nmvpbjakggbjqgl/%E6%89%8B%E6%9C%BAQQ%E8%A7%86%E9%A2%91_20180926175914.mp4?dl=0 For Q2:This is a description of the supported resolutions for taking photos and recording videos. Adjustments can be made by: MENU (press the menu button) >> OK (press OK to enter the first resolution adjustment) >> ← → Make selection (1080P, 720P, VGA for different picture and video resolution). https://massdrop-s3.imgix.net/img_comment/1Cf8NkxGTUaFLaLYHLoh_1111.jpg https://massdrop-s3.imgix.net/img_comment/IlFBpoXSQ6aYXlJwb0iw_22222.jpg Hopefully the information will help you to understand the product , please kindly let me know if you have any other questions.
